COSMOLEDO ATOLL FLY FISHING REPORT (29 FEB – 07 MAR 2024)
COSMOLEDO ATOLL FLY FISHING REPORT | 29 FEB – 07 MAR 2024
Our last week of the season on Cosmoledo was mainly based on neap tides. The beginning and the end of the week had more water movement compared to the middle of the week. This left us with lots of areas to fish all day. The weather over the first day was excellent: full sun, no clouds, and no wind making perfect conditions for flats fishing. The guests were ecstatic as most of them caught their first GTs on the very first day! The rest of the week was filled with a variety of weather conditions, providing the guests with the opportunity to experience fishing in various weather scenarios.
John and Kyle Edwards, Warren Bass, Joshua Luft-Glidden, John Butcher, and Schyler Van Gorden all caught their first GTs on the first day. Duan van Wijk and Giulio Forno also caught GTs later in the week. Congratulations, gentlemen, on ticking off yet another fantastic saltwater species on the fly!
Ian McNiel caught himself a fish of a lifetime. After 30 years of targeting permits all over the world, Ian finally had his dream come true when he landed a 63 cm permit. It was an incredible moment for both Ian and his guide. Congratulations, Ian, on getting your trophy permit!
John Butcher got his hands on a lovely moustache trigger right at the end of the week after having some good luck with GTs as well. Congrats, John!
Reyhard Du Toit captured his very first permit on the second day of the week, a fish he had been after for a long time. Reyhard’s permit, caught on Menai sand flat, measured a breathtaking 70 cm in length. A massive congratulations to Reyhard on a phenomenal fish!
Warren Bass ended up with a large number of GTs for the week. He also caught his very first bonefish on top of his first GT. Congrats, Warren!
Overall, it was a very successful week for all. We look forward to having you all back here again soon.
